Contrast this with the unsettled grammar of \u201calternative opening prayers\u201d in the original books from ICEL (the International Commission on English in the Liturgy), whose poesie sounds like Teilhard on steroids.<\/p>\n<p>They were much wordier than the Latin collects or their English equivalents, and gave the impression of having been composed by fragile personalities who had not had a happy early home life. So too, the Prayers of the Faithful cloyingly pursued \u201cthemes\u201d usually inspired by an undisciplined concern for air pollution and third world debt. &#8230;. &#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>While I am glad for the new and more accurate translation of the Mass, which is not perfection but closer to it than one deserves in an imperfect world, a far more important reform would be the return of the ad orientem  position of the celebrant as normative. It is the antidote to the tendency of clerisy to impose itself on the people. When a celebrant at Mass stops and says, \u201cThis is not about me,\u201d you may be sure he thinks it may be about him. It would be harder for him to harbor that suspicion were he leading the people humbly to the east and the dawn of salvation. &#8230; &#8230; <\/p>\n<p>\u201cClad in his sacerdotal vestments, [the priest] sinks what is individual in himself altogether, and is but the representative of Him from whom he derives his commission. His words, his tones, his actions, his presence, lose their personality; one bishop, one priest, is like another; they all chant the same notes, and observe the same genuflections, as they give one peace and one blessing, as they offer one and the same sacrifice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Mass must not be said without a Missal under the priest\u2019s eye; nor in any language but that in which it has come down to us from the early hierarchs of the Western Church. But, when it is over, and the celebrant has resigned the vestments proper to it, then he resumes himself, and comes to us in the gifts and associations which attach to his person. &#8230; &#8230; <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>En amerikansk prest skriver noks\u00e5 bitende om liturgien vi har hatt de siste 40 \u00e5r, selv om han er glad for den nye engelske oversettelsen av messen &#8211; og h\u00e5per at messefeiring ad orientem skal komme tilbake i st\u00f8rre grad.
